Tasting - Lobetia Tempranillo

Name: Lobetia Tempranillo
Variety: Tempranillo
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $10.95




Winery Review: Organically and naturally grown and made, this wine allows the varietal and the terroir to stand out cleanly. It shows a nice cherry color with a violet shade because of its youth. Red berries and cherries on the nose. On the palate it is fresh, slightly astringent, and harmonious with a long finish.- Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes

My Review: I wasn't a huge fan of this Tempranillo. I think I'm having a hard time getting into this variety. It smells like metal coins and also has cherry in the flavor but overall, it's just dry and doesn't really impress me. Could be better with food?
